Controversial law merging polytechnics, techical schools approved
Opposition parties charge that that the education ministry bill is full of political favours and comes in an electoral period. New Democracy says it will rescind the law if elected.
Parliament has approved an initial reading of an omnibus education ministry bill that has caused a political maelstrom as opposition parties charge that it is full of political favours and comes in an electoral period.
Greek academics and opposition parties have charged that Education Minister Kostas Gavroglu eschewed any dialogue with university rectors and the academic community and did not seek even a modicum of consensus with the opposition.
The most intense criticism is regarding the merger of Polytechnics with tertiary technical schools (DEH) which is intended to upgrade the status of technical schools but has been criticised as a patronage measure, presumably to attract the votes of those connected to the country’s many technical schools.
The same has been said about new faculties established by the new law.
In particular, academics have criticised the draft law’s establishment of a new law school, as the country has several and there is a huge number of lawyers in Greece, 388 per 100,000 citizens.
New Democracy Vice-President Kostis Hatzidakis has said that a New Democracy government will rescind the law.
The draft legislation – entitled “Synergies between Universities and Technical Schools, Access to Tertiary Education, Experimental Schools, the State General Archives, and Other Measures” – was approved with 147 yeas and 100 nays.
Η Γυναίκα της Ζάκυθος και άλλες αιώνιες μνήμες είναι ένα ποιητικό έργο που ο Σολωμός δεν τελείωσε ποτέ - όπως δεν τελείωσε ποτέ τα περισσότερα έργα του.
Η ταινία, που ολοκληρώθηκε πρόσφατα έπειτα από τρία χρόνια παραγωγής φέρνει και πάλι στο προσκήνιο το πιο κρίσιμο ζήτημα του καιρού μας: την κλιματική κρίση. Το Mankind’s Folly έρχεται στον κινηματογράφο Δαναό για δύο μόνο προβολές το Σάββατο 17 & την Κυριακή 18 Ιανουαρίου.
Μυστικά, σχέσεις και συγκρούσεις ξεδιπλώνονται μέσα από τις ζωές τριών ανθρώπων που προσπαθούν να σταθούν ο ένας απέναντι στον άλλον και τελικά απέναντι στον ίδιο τους τον εαυτό.
